A curious thing at the A&E store

Administrator

Hi all,

I see that A&E has redesigned the look of their website:

http://store.aetv.com

However, there is something rather curious here --
when I go to their "Cult TV" page (from the link on the
left sidebar), I get a layout which shows Mr. Bean at the
top, then a section for Bestsellers, then (and this is
the wierd part) a section for "UFO" (?), and finally a
section for "All Cult TV Categories".

I find it strange that they have a special section for
UFO -- is UFO selling so well that it deserves a special
section? Or do they have some sort of cookie stored
on my computer that tells them that I'm interested in
UFO??

It's not cookies - maybe they are just trying to push their UFO
stock at the moment, or maybe they think there's a greater demand
for it.

I get, right on the main home page, on the right hand side, a vertical
line up of Victory at Sea, Failure Is Not An Option, Cult TV The Avengers,
and UFO the megaset.
I have never accessed any of the first three, so I doubt there are any
cookies on my machine for them. I also AdAware my machine every few days.
